We live in an age of Grace.
Through the death of His Son, Jesus Christ, the Father has taken us from an age of law and sacrifice to an age of grace. Through His sacrifice, we may freely come to Him.
It's so simple.
It clearly says in Romans chapter 10, verses 9 thru 13:
"that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. For “whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.”
All you have to do is believe that God raised Christ up from the grave and confess with your mouth that He is Lord and you are not.
God's riches at Christ's expense.
No longer must we shed the blood of an innocent lamb, for the Lamb of God has shed his blood for us.
We have hope in that. It is hope.
But, one day God's grace will no longer be freely given. A day of judgement awaits those who mocked and scoffed and blasphemed the goodness of our Lord.
A day comes when those who have rejected the Love of the Father will have sealed their fate.
God is love and so he must therefore be just. God is just so he must therefore follow through with his judgement.
And through this somber message, there is hope...
We presently live in an age of Grace.
I pray you believe in His goodness and accept what He has done for you.
"Kiss the Son, lest He be angry,
And you perish in the way,
When His wrath is kindled but a little.
Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him."
Psalm 2:12
